Welcome to /pub/apple2 This directory is for Apple ][ series computers, not Apple Macintosh. Macintosh users should change to /pub/mac, unless they are interested in Apple ][ emulators :-) Most programs here will even work on Apple ][ and ][+, some only on //e, //c (or enhanced //e, //c), almost nothing is for GS. Please look into /pub/apple2/doc before you download something. Usually you can find the extracted doc-files there. If you don't know, how to get software from this ftp-server, please read the file BEGINNER. The file SUFFIX contains descriptions to various file suffices. For example, if you don't know, what a .bsq file might be, please consult this file. Why .bsq? The answer is simple: ShrinkIt won't work without the correct file type and aux. type. And BinSCII not only preserves the ProDOS file and aux. type, but also encodes the data into readable ASCII text. Thus, you don't have to use binary transmission. That's it :-)
